## Facebook Android SDK for Maven & Gradle

Current port is based on the v3.18.0 available at https://developers.facebook.com/android/  

The API is packaged as an **aar** and available from Maven Central Repository for use with **Maven** or **Gradle**.

###How to use

####Maven

The **aar** dependency requires the use of the maven-android-plugin 3.8.1+ with maven 3.1.1+ :

```xml

  fr.avianey

  facebook-android-api

  3.18.0

  aar

```

If you want to use a newer version of the android-support-v4 dependency, exclude the old one with this line :    

```xml

  fr.avianey

  facebook-android-api

  ...

  

    

      support-v4

      com.google.android

    

  

```

You might want to add the **jar** dependency as well to support code completion in Eclipse ADT. Adding the **jar** will result in **DEX** errors at build time as the Facebook API classes will be added twice to the generated **apk**. To solve the problem, build your project from command line and reference the **jar** dependency in the **m2e** (Eclipse only) Maven profile :  

```xml

  

    m2e

    

      

        m2e.version

      

    

    

      

        fr.avianey

        facebook-android-api

        3.18.0

        jar

        

          

            support-v4

            com.google.android

          

        

      

    

  

```

####Gradle

Add the following dependency to your build.gradle

```javascript

dependencies {

  compile 'fr.avianey:facebook-android-api:+@aar'

  // other dependencies

}

```

If you want to use a newer version of the android-support-v4 dependency, exclude the old one with this line :  

```javascript

configurations.all {

  exclude group: 'com.google.android', module: 'support-v4', version: 'r7'

  // other configurations

}

```
